6.1 Drag & drop assets

(video placeholder)

The assets can be used on the pages in the same way as the Episerver editor is used to. The simplest method is dragging the asset from the asset list and dropping it either into the general content area or in a specific content block.

...

Sometimes the block is defined by the developer to only accept certain type of content, e.g. only images in banner format. Dragging the wrong type of content will result in an error. In order to find the right content the editor can filter by crop type.

6.2 Dynamic content

(video placeholder)

An Episerver developer can configure a content block to automatically accept content based on metadata-related criteria. The content of the block will be added or removed dynamically when the metadata is changed.

...

In this specific example all the editor needs to do is to select the folders from which the assets should be pickedpulled, and then specify the selection criteria. In this case all the assets from one selected folder with "Approved" status will be inserted in JPG medium media format. If anyone changes the status of the assets in this folder when working with the Media Manager, the changes will automatically be reflected on the Episerver page.
